If you look at the set design drawings for the show that was gonna originally follow the original series you can see that basically every proposed set ends up getting used at some point in tng or its follow on shows. Like almost every element thought of carries over into the shows at some point man.
They had to design a set that was realistically useable for a show that was filming fast so considering that the simple set that tng has for the bridge is allowable and excusable. But yeh it was a dope set
also i dont understand the anime stuff in your post
i dont watch anime
i watch star trek

No offense. I like StarTrek when I need to wind down or fall asleep on the couch.

Babylon 5 fans were literally mallgoths, back when the show started. They spent all of their lives arguing on message boards, and just HAD to like things nobody else liked, just like all these crappy 90s Sci-Fi Channel shows nobody remembers now.
It WAS more progressive and daring on LGBTQ and other social issues than Trek though, but the same can be said for a lot of other 90s crap with no other merits to it.
I'm kinda starting to like Orville though. Most episodes are almost shamefully entertaining, for their low ambitions, it's surprising how good many of the plots and concepts really are. And unlike Trek, they really have the guts to say outright that all religion and "traditional culture" is sheer insanity that should be eradicated. They really pull no punches on that!
And Red Dwarf was brilliant when at its best, but I think it was more a Buck Rogers / Alien / Space:1999 spoof, much more pessimistic, low-tech and cynical than Star Trek's future. No Federation, transporters or miraculous medical technology in it. I'd kinda like to see a new take on that kind of near-future space setting, though.

>>3620237>Red Dwarf was brilliant when at its bestThe only point of Red Dwarf was that the team could not pull off a proper sci-fi show with the budget they were given, so they made a parody of the fact that the the props were basically worksite lamps and traffic cones covered in tin foil, and the actors didn't fit the roles they were cast.

>>3620351Red Dwarf had some very good episodes amongst the rest : Tikka to ride and Stoke me a Clipper was brilliant.
Better than life , Meltdown & Rimmerworld was hilarious.
IMHO.
I have watched more reruns of Red Dwarf than other series despite the trashy look. The dynamic between the 4 main characters carry the show.

>>3620568Sci-fi fans are predominantly autistic manchildren. You can explain the concept to an assburger, but that doesn't mean they'll understand it, because the particular dysfunction they have causes disinterest and difficulty to reflect on what other people think.
It kinda makes the person feel like they're the only real person in the world and others are just puppets, so social rules are more of a theoretical concern unless there's a direct need to follow them (eg. not getting beat up for being an insufferable dork).

>>3620582You're trying to describe Autism, but actually described Narcisism better.
I've met a number of fine auties who are frankly better people than me, and most others. I've also met an assburger that thinks that justifies not working and insulting people who won't have fucking unbirthing conversations in public.
Mental handicaps don't make you a douchebag. Being a douchebag does. Alas, we live in a society that is too obsessed with 'gotcha!' realizations, where we can just sweep all the 'others' under a rug when they disagree with us. You could genocide and sterilize down to the last two humans and they'd still fight.
d10d7cd4 No.3620655
>>3620628No. Narcissism is different - it's a fragile ego problem, not a neurological issue.
One way to detect autism in children is observing their lack of understanding over other minds. You make a puppet play where one puppet hides a thing, and another puppet comes looking for it. Normal children correctly predict that the other puppet will not find the object, while the autistic children only consider what they themselves know, and they know where the object is, so they incorrectly predict that the other puppet will find it.
The autistic person does not automatically consider that other people have minds of their own - they don't automatically consider other people as people. They only become interested in the fact to avoid conflicts, and gradually learn to emulate the sort of social reflection that normal people do by sheer effort of mind. It's actually aggravating for an autistic person that other people don't behave exactly as they would want, because it breaks the predictability of the world and makes it nonsensical to the autistic mind.
d10d7cd4 No.3620658
One theory about autism is the "noisy brain" theory that posits the autistic mind is too sensitive to signals, so it cannot process any ambiguity. It just gets lost in the noise. Only clear repetitive patterns can be perceived, learned and repeated.
So in trying to understand other people, the autistic person reduces them into crude stereotypes and rigid "rules of thumb". They're also liable to interpret speech very literally, argue over meaning of words, and get misunderstood by using words in ways which other people don't understand because they assume other people are using the same definitions and contexts.

I didn't even get into Dr Who until David Tennant. Still pissed that Obama swore we could keep our Doctor, and then bam, no more David. Its just kinda went down hill from there, a little peak with old man Dr, didn't even mind the Master turning into the Mistress/Missy.

Christopher Reeve was the most loved of all the actors that have ever played Superman, and there have been many.
